[Milsurplus] 220 MHz ham band AM usage?

[flood at Krohne.com]

Hi to all,

Ah ha!  Now I don't feel so bad.  I asked the same question of the local
220 spectrum management guy.  Answer....  First silence, I expect he was
looking around for the hidden camera. Then he asks "Who is this again?" I
figure he is trying to recognize the voice, still sure that someone is
playing a trick on him.  Next he attempts, unsuccessfully, to hold back
laughter and makes a comment something along the line of  'you must be one
of those guys that's on 6 and 2 AM!'  At this point I'm thinking  "Great,
now this is on my permanent record."  He tells me that, (and I'm sure he is
still looking for that camera) "Well I'm sure that you won't be using it
very often so  it's OK to go where ever we want but just don't cause
problems for the local repeaters.  He wasn't rude at all and I glad that I
was able to make him smile.

green radio folks -

  Is there a preferred frequency in the 220 MHz ham band for AM
operation?  The ARRL band plan doesn't mention anything about AM on that
band.
